Empire Szechuan - Staten Island

This restaurant is a complete fake. It's advertised as a Chinese food restaurant, not Tex-Mex, but the food is awful. I feel like going back and throwing the food at the owner!

The chips and queso were disappointing, with greasy chips topped with quickly-hardening melted cheddar cheese and sour cream. The burrito had an overwhelming amount of lettuce, guacamole, and sour cream on the outside, drowning out the flavors. The ground beef in the burrito had a strange and unpleasant taste, making it unappealing for a second try. The only decent item was the quesadilla.

The service at this restaurant was excellent, but, unfortunately, the food did not live up to expectations. The dumplings were too thick and lacked flavor. The boneless spare ribs were bland. The beef and broccoli was okay, but too greasy. The highlights of the meal were the vegetable lo mein and the white rice.

Sent the wrong food. Paid in full including tip and the. A tip was added on to the receipt. They also charged me for an item I didn't order. The manager explained that there was an extra charge for the sauce on the side, however, it was not disclosed on the website. They took over an hour and twenty mins to deliver. They refused to correct my charges.
